What is the best natural sweetener for these Low-carb Chocolate Muffins?

My favorite choices are:

Xylitol: It’s a sugar alcohol that it’s found naturally in specific plants and contains four-hundredth fewer calories than regular sugar. Also, it’s a really low glycemic, which is nice for diabetes since it doesn’t spike blood sugar. This was the primary natural sweetener that I’ve ever baked with and I love it so much; simply, it doesn’t leave an awful taste.

Monk Fruit Sweetener Lakanto: this is a brand new sweetener that I’m using, and so far I’ve been really enjoying it. It has virtually no aftertaste and contains no calories and carbs, which is ideal for low-carb and keto diets. I used this one to create these chocolate muffins.

Swerve I really want to use this one; however, I’ve heard the negative aspect of this sweetener is that it has some cooling sensation after you eat a treat made with this sweetener. It’s also healthy and natural, and all its ingredients come from various fruits and starchy root vegetables. Has no artificial sweeteners.

Ingredients

• 2¼ cups of almond flour, i use blanched almond flour
• 1 tablespoon of cocoa powder

• 3 large pasture-raised eggs if available
• ½ cups of liquid monkfruit syrup
• ¼ cup coconut oil, melted
• 2/3 cup of Lily’s Dark Chocolate Chips

How to make Low Carb Chocolate Muffins With Almond Flour?

• First, heat up the oven to 350˚F. Line a muffin tin with paper liners and set it aside for later.
• Take a medium-sized bowl, add the dry ingredients ( baking soda, almond flour, cacao powder and salt), and blend well to mix.
• Use another bowl to add eggs, monkfruit sweetener (honey or maple syrup) and melted butter, and whisk to mix.
• Pour the eggs mixture into the almond-flour mixture, then really carefully stir well to blend it nicely.
• Mix in chocolate chips and divide the batter among the prepared muffin cups.
• This is terribly important: fill in every muffin cup three-quarters of the way. It’s around 2 and a 0.5 tablespoon per muffin cup. The dough will be a bit thick, however it’ll work absolutely perfect. Sprinkle with extra sugar-free chocolate to your liking.
• Bake the muffins for 25-30 minutes, till the tops of the muffins are set and a toothpick inserted within the center comes out clean.
• Place the pan on a wire rack and let the muffins cool within the pan for five minutes. Gently pop the muffins out let cool for 10 minutes more on the rack. Enjoy!!!
